RlwOod H0fer and Jack Tansey are
Bound to Surpass all Previous
Explorers In the Na-

On Monday, Feb. l4th, Elwood Hofer
and Jack Tansey started from Mammoth
Hot Springs. to make winter tour of
the Park. These excursions are becom-
ing epidemic. We hope great good will
grow out Of it. In what particular way
no man knoweth.
OLD ROGER BACON,
of blessed memory, spent years in tine
vain attempt to transmute the baser
metals into gold. Though he failed in
that. he discovered gunpowder, and
through that discovery one system of
civilization was exploded and new and
better one dawned. Who knows what
may result from this new. "expedition?"
Billy is extremely reticent as to what
he intends to attain by exposing him
self and his companions to the rigors of
q Rocky Mountain excursion over the
deepest snow and amid the worst storms
that have swept the mountains for ten
years, although he has snow shoes of
the canoe type, and tent of sibley style.
There is a suspicion that the expedition
has secret purpose and aim not contem-
plated by any previous explorer. He
and his companions are fully determined
to solve some problem of Importance to
the Park, one that will perhaps revolu-
tionize the old mode of doing the Park
as effectually as Bacon did in regard to
warfare. The barons were fired out OF
their castles by his discovery, and the
walls of their fortresses leveled with the
ground, and all their special privileges,
such as the first kiss" of the bride, (it
she was beautifully were swept away Tor

GERMANY, in spite of the statement
minimizing the gravity of the situation,
to be dangerously strained. Adviees
from other quarters indicate growing
impatience on the part of France-a dis
position to bring matters to an issue. It
is significantly asserted In French tele-
grams that France, although not desir-
ing conflict. is now ready to defend
herself. At Pesth to day the Hungarian
minister of nationa, defense obtained
his vote of credit Of seven millions from

also granted vote on account of Il. .000,-
